my home server with madsonic is based on a PC and I have him configured to go to standby after some time with no access and wake up by a received magic packet from the cilent.Using madsonic client I have to first send a magic packet with a seperate app and then start Madsonic.

It would be a much more comfortable an a perfect feature for the client to have an option "Send a magic packet".This option has to be flexible for:MAC-AdressURL or IPUDP-PortSubnetWaiting time for the server to wake up (and then start the music player)

Why not? I do it all the time on journeys and at friends home:First wake up my server with an extra app and then start Madsonic.The only difference to my request is, that I have to do it manually in two steps.

On desktops and notebooks I created a batch file that first starts a WOL-program and then the browser with the link of my server.With my tablet I have to do it in two steps and it would be more comfortable with Madsonic having a configurable waking feature, especially when I want to tell firends how to reach my server.

if i would implement such a snipplet into my peace of code, i would set up a loop-function. the app will only fire up if WOL has succeded.

That is a good idea.

so i bet this request is not one of the best ??

I think it is a good request, because I and maybe others need it. The reason you can take a workaround with manually starting 2 apps after another cannot be seriously called a reason to reject such a feature.
